[Documentation] What is Context?

[nucflash]

The documentation is not clear for Context. It is not obvious for a newcomer neither what Context does nor how it can be feed with input. A more elaborate description and explanation on the input/ouput is needed.

In my view it is quite simple: the Semanticizer is currently meant for short text. However the short text can be part of a larger context (e.g. a sentence in a document, a short bit of subtitle in a TV broadcast or a tweet within a topic). Given this information there are a couple of additional things you could do, such as filter for duplicates, compute context features or provide feedback on a context instead of a specific request.

You’re very welcome to update the documentation to reflect this or to provide suggestions to change this.

Thanks.

These few sentences already provide some more information.

A few clarification questions:

• Filter for duplicates ... of what?
• Compute context features. How should I think of this? Can you give me an example?
• Provide feedback on a context instead of a specific request. This hard for me to imagine. Can you give an example?

Also, the three ways above are input to the API in the same way, or differently? What type of variable is this going to be?
